ABSTRACT

Abstract: Tadpoles are abundant in the environments in which they occur and remain in aquatic habitats for longer periods than adults, being relatively easier to collect. Despite the increase in tadpole research in the past decade, our understanding of its morphological diversity remains limited. Here, we provide morphological characterizations for larvae of 15 anuran species that occur at Emas National Park (ENP) and its surroundings, in Goiás, and compare them with descriptions available in the literature for other locations. We also present an update of the list of anuran species known to the ENP, based on tadpole sampling. We found tadpoles from 15 anuran species, of which five represent new records for the park. Many species showed variations in morphological characters when compared with descriptions available in the literature for other locations, reinforcing the importance of describing larvae from different populations. Through the exploration of morphological characters, it is possible to make inferences about the functional diversity of the larvae and questions related to the homology of characters, in addition to assisting in the identification and taxonomic distinction of species. Studies with tadpole communities can generate key information about the factors that drive the anurans' richness and distribution and can provide support for establishing more consistent conservation strategies and management plans.


Resumo: Os girinos são abundantes nos ambientes que ocorrem e permanecem nos habitats aquáticos por períodos de tempo mais longos que os adultos, sendo relativamente mais fáceis de coletar. Apesar do aumento da pesquisa com girinos na última década, nossa compreensão sobre sua diversidade morfológica ainda permanece limitada. Aqui, fornecemos caracterizações morfológicas para larvas de 15 espécies de anuros que ocorrem no Parque Nacional das Emas (PNE), Goiás, e comparamos com descrições disponíveis na literatura para outras localidades. Apresentamos também uma atualização da lista de espécies de anuros conhecidos para o PNE, com base na amostragem de girinos. Encontramos larvas de 15 espécies de anuros, das quais cinco representam novos registros para o parque. Muitas espécies apresentaram variações nos caracteres morfológicos quando comparamos com descrições disponíveis na literatura para outras localidades, reforçando a importância da descrição de larvas de diferentes populações. Através da exploração de caracteres morfológicos é possível realizar inferências sobre a diversidade funcional das larvas e questões relativas à homologia de caracteres, além de auxiliar na identificação e distinção taxonômica das espécies. Estudos com comunidades de girinos podem gerar informações importantes sobre os fatores que impulsionam a riqueza e a distribuição dos anuros e, podem fornecer suporte para o estabelecimento de estratégias de conservação e planos de manejo mais consistentes.

ABSTRACT

Objective:As a source of energy for Armillaria mellea and Gastrodia elata,the woods species as fungus material of G.elata are diverse and play an important role in the development of G.elata industry. In order to explore the impact of different woods species on the quality of G. elata,the plant origins and lignocellulose content of the woods,the yield and quality of G. elata per unit area were systemically analyzed through literature research and investigation on production bases. Method:G. elata and its cultivated woods were collected from four main producing areas (Guizhou, Yunnan, Hubei, and Shaanxi),and the the plant origins of the woods were identified by DNA fragments. The content of lignocellulose in the woods was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography and loss-on-ignition method. The content of polysaccharides of G. elata from these 4 areas was determined by Phenol-sulfuric acid method. The yields and polysaccharide content of G. elata cultivated with different woods species were compared and their correlation with the woods was analyzed. Result:The woods as fungus material of G. elata were diverse in species, and betulaceae was the most widely used species in cultivation of G. elata. There were differences in the composition ratio of lignocellulose in the woods. Nyssaceae had the highest cellulose content,Moraceae had the highest hemicellulose content and Rosaceae had the highest lignin content. Different woods species had certain effects on the yield and polysaccharide content of G. elata. The maximum yield of G. elata was 1 285.51 g and the lowest yield was 379.30 g. The average mass fraction of polysaccharide content was 241.1 mg·g-1,with a range of 87.95-411.2 mg·g-1. The yield and polysaccharide content of G. elata were highly positively correlated with the cellulose content of the woods, and highly negatively correlated with the lignin content. Conclusion:Different woods have a significant impact on the yield and quality of G. elata. Choosing the appropriate woods species will be beneficial to the absorption of nutrients for A. mellea and the yield increase of G. elata. This study can provide a scientific basis for the selection of woods species during the cultivation of G. elata.

ABSTRACT

The Cerrado is a tropical savannah with a diversified anuran assemblage, with 209 to 271 known species, of which approximately 51% are endemic. In this study, we report results of an anuran survey performed in the Extractivist Reserve of the Lago do Cedro, located in the northwestern region of the state of Goiás, Brazil. In this area, we recorded 36 anuran species, distributed in five families, from which five species are Cerrado endemics. This high species richness found in the Extractivist Reserve of the Lago do Cedro could be explain by the different vegetational types within the reserve boundaries that promote a high local heterogeneity. Species richness and representativeness per family are similar to other assemblages reported for different areas in the Cerrado domain, being the local anuran assemblage composed by generalist and widely distributed species. The families Hylidae and Leptodactylidae are the most diversified in the studied area, a common pattern found in neotropical assemblages. The Extractivist Reserve Lago do Cedro is an important area for Cerrado conservation because of the anuran diversity and geographic location, which allows the connection among other protected areas within the Araguaia basin.


O Cerrado é uma savana tropical que abriga uma anurofauna muito diversa, sendo estimado de 209 espécies à 271 espécies conhecidas, das quais a metade (51%) são endêmicas. Neste trabalho, apresentamos o inventário da anurofauna da Reserva Extrativista Lago do Cedro (RELC), noroeste do estado de Goiás. Ao todo, registramos 36 espécies de anuros, distribuídas em cinco famílias, das quais cinco espécies são endêmicas do Cerrado. A alta riqueza de espécies encontrada pode ser explicada pela heterogeneidade de habitats, promovida pelas diferentes fitofisionomias dentro da unidade de conservação. A riqueza de espécies e a representatividade por família apresentam valores semelhantes aos encontrados em outras taxocenoses no Cerrado, com a anurofauna local formada por espécies generalistas e de ampla distribuição. As famílias com maior diversidade de espécies foram Hylidae e Leptodactylidae, padrão frequentemente encontrado nas assembleias neotropicais. A RELC é uma importante unidade de conservação do Cerrado, servindo de abrigo para populações de anuros, sendo representativa da diversidade de anfíbios no bioma, e apresentando localização estratégica devido a posição central com relação a áreas de preservação na bacia do Araguaia.

ABSTRACT

Este trabalho apresenta um levantamento das espécies de Scarabaeinae de uma área de campo nativo no município de Bagé, estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. As coletas foram realizadas com armadilhas de interceptação de voo e armadilhas de queda iscadas com fezes humanas, banana em decomposição e carne apodrecida, entre os meses de dezembro de 2005 e novembro de 2006. Foram capturados 4.573 indivíduos pertencentes a 14 gêneros e 30 espécies. Onthophagus aff. hirculus Mannerheim, 1829, Canthon podagricus Harold, 1868, Ontherus sulcator (Fabricius, 1775) e Canthidium moestum Harold, 1867 foram as espécies mais abundantes. A maior parte da assembleia capturada é constituída por espécies coprófagas e generalistas preferencialmente necrófagas. Poucas espécies foram estritamente necrófagas e nenhuma foi classificada como saprófaga. As roladoras e as escavadoras foram representadas por números similares de espécies.


This work presents a survey of Scarabaeinae species from a natural grassland area in Bagé, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Samplings were carried out with flight intercept traps and pitfall traps baited with human feces, rotten banana and rotten meat, from December 2005 to November 2006. A total of 4,573 individuals, belonging to 14 genera and 30 species were collected. Onthophagus aff. hirculus Mannerheim, 1829, Canthon podagricus Harold, 1868, Ontherus sulcator (Fabricius, 1775) and Canthidium moestum Harold, 1867 were the most abundant species. Most of the captured assemblage is composed by species coprophagous and generalists preferably necrophagous. Few species were strictly necrophagous and none was classified as saprophagous. The rollers and tunnelers were represented by similar numbers of species.

ABSTRACT

Species of thrips (Insecta, Thysanoptera) in two strawberry production systems in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Thrips are tiny insects responsible for the reduction of strawberry fruit quality. The work aimed to record and quantify the thysanopterofauna present in two strawberry production systems, low tunnel and semi-hydroponic. Leaves, flowers and fruits were collected weekly, from July 2005 to December 2006 in Caxias do Sul and Bom Princípio municipalities, RS. A total of 664 individuals were collected, representing two families, four genus and 10 species: Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande, 1895), F. schultzei (Trybom, 1910), F. rodeos Moulton, 1933, F. simplex (Priesner, 1924), F. williamsi (Hood, 1915), F. gemina (Bagnall, 1919), Frankliniella sp., Thrips tabaci (Lindeman, 1888), Thrips tabaci (Lindeman, 1888), Caliothrips fasciatus (Pergande 1895) from Thripidae and Heterothrips sp. from Heterothripidae. Frankliniella occidentalis represented 89.7 percent of the samples with 95.8 percent of the species collected in flowers, 3.9 percent in fruits and 0.8 percent in leaves. The results show that flowers are the most important food resource for these insects on strawberry plants. Frankliniella rodeos, F. simplex, F. williamsi, C. fasciatus, and Heterothrips sp. are new records on strawberry for Brazil.


Espécies de tripes (Insecta, Thysanoptera) associadas à cultura do morangueiro em dois sistemas de produção no Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Tripes são insetos diminutos responsáveis pela redução da qualidade dos frutos do morangueiro. O trabalho objetivou registrar e quantificar a tisanopterofauna presente em dois sistemas de produção de morangueiro, túnel baixo e semihidropônico. Folhas, flores e frutos foram coletados semanalmente, de julho de 2005 a dezembro de 2006 em Caxias do Sul e Bom Princípio, RS. Foram coletados 664 indivíduos pertencentes a duas famílias, quatro gêneros e 10 espécies: Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande, 1895), F. schultzei (Trybom, 1910), F. rodeos (Moulton, 1933), F. simplex (Priesner, 1924), F. williamsi (Hood, 1915), F. gemina (Bagnall, 1919), Frankliniella sp., Thrips tabaci (Lindeman, 1888) e Caliothrips fasciatus (Pergande, 1895) pertencentes a Thripidae, e Heterothrips sp. pertencente a Heterothripidae. Com 593 ocorrências, F. occidentalis representou 89,3 por cento dos insetos coletados, com 87,9 por cento dos indivíduos nas flores, 8,4 por cento nas folhas e 3,7 por cento nos frutos. Os resultados sugerem que as flores do morangueiro representam o recurso preferido pelos tripes. Frankliniella rodeos, F. simplex, F. williamsi, C. fasciatus e Heterothrips sp. são novos registros na cultura para o Brasil.
